Cédric HANRIOT

Cedric Hanriot is a French pianist and composer, recipient of international musical awards. Besides a Fulbright grant, Cedric Hanriot has won major composition and solo prizes throughout the world including the Jazz at St Germain Festival, International Jazz Soloist Contest in Monaco and Enghien les Bains Festival. He has won the prestigious French-American Arthur King Peters Memorial Grant, the Mary Jane Earnhart Ellison Endowed Scholarship as well as scholarships to Berklee College of Music, Boston (USA).

Cedric Hanriot recently recorded his "French Stories" album whose concept is to turn French well known songs into jazz, waltz, latin and world music and originals. This album features two jazz legends: Terri Lyne Carrington on drums and vocals (Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder) and John Patitucci on basses (Sting, Wayne Shorter). The album will be released worldwide in 2011 on Plus Loin disc labe/Distribution Harmonia Mundi.


Album “French Stories“

Only 12 years after he earned his first spurs playing the piano, he is back here after an initiatory trip in the US, around NYC and the Berklee College of Music.
An incomparable source of experiences that enabled him to work with the likes of Me’shell Ndegeocello, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Joe Lovano, and Cindy Blackman. Cédric brought back with a stimulatingly spontaneous album, recorded on a sunny day of August 2009 with John Patitucci and Terri Lyne Carrington. And the drummer is full of praise for him: "Cédric is one of the most talented musicians I know. It is incredible to see all he has accomplished in so little time. He will accomplish great things...".

Listening to "French Stories" makes it obvious that, far from getting astray in a "made in USA" project where his inventive personality could have pushed into the background, Cédric Hanriot dares the invigorating alchemy of a composite and firmly contemporary jazz.
The strings and the Electro sounds in his music never disown his love for French popular tunes – hence the peculiar recreations of four French "chansons" on this album.
The stories told by Cédric Hanriot enthusiastically illustrate the musical journey of multifaceted artist – pianist, composer, arranger, sound designer, producer – who will soon be discussed again.
